    FS: 1999 3rd Gen. 4x4 Highlander Sport, Orlando, FL $6,500

    *SOLD* The time has come to sell my 1999 Toyota 4Runner SR5 Sport 4x4. I purchased this vehicle 4 years ago with the intention of keeping it forever. Recently I decided to go back to college full time and I purchased a vehicle with better gas mileage for my 60 mile daily commute. The odometer...

    Wheel & Tire Help

    I would suggest reading through this real quick, as it explains the differences between offset and backspacing more simply than I can. Wheel Backspacing Vs. Offset | eHow That link along with the one I previously posted should help you make better sense of it all. Just compare the width and...

    CV axle replacement recommendations

    I had to go to two local dealerships since each had only one in stock. <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lpoirieriv/13432593183" title="20140326_155232 by lpoirieriv, on Flickr"><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3821/13432593183_e3b3520008.jpg" width="500" height="281"...

    CV axle replacement recommendations

    Sorry for a possibly stupid question but, whats wrong with the re-manufactured axles from the toyota dealership? I just bought two a few weeks ago for $92 each. There was a core charge but I had my axles in hand and didn't have to pay it. Here is a picture of them... <a...

    Chocolate milk in leaky rear axle, repaire questions.

    :iagree: Oh yes, you are correct %100 percent. If there would have been enough room, I would have done it that way no question. The bolts on the top between the two half cups were there to prevent the cups from coming together when pressure was applied. The two half pieces on the top had...

    Chocolate milk in leaky rear axle, repaire questions.

    There was too much shade tree engineering here for me to even begin to know what you mean... :shrug: lol I'm sure there were many things that could/should have been done differently. It was sunday afternoon and I had to get this thing back together for work the next day. I would like to know...

    Chocolate milk in leaky rear axle, repaire questions.

    I just replaced my rear bearings this week. At first I had a friend at Toyota press everything on for me and he put the abs exciter ring and the oil retainer rng on too far. Finally went the harbour freight route and bought the 20 Ton press that was on sale for 199.99 and the bearing separator...

    Wheel & Tire Help

    Search for the dimensions of your current wheels, then use this https://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator You can dial in exactly how far you want them to stick out. Then, order the proper wheels to match what you want.

    1999 4Runner Rear Suspension Question

    My truck was sagging horribly when I purchased it. I quickly swapped out the old rear springs for land cruiser 9 wraps and bilstein shocks and I love them. For the fronts, I put on tundra bilstein shocks (5 spring perch settings) with my stock 99 springs. I have a slight rake to the front with...

    factory or dealer installed security system?

    I may be wrong but from what I've read and seen, the security systems (RS3000, I believe) have a module under the drivers seat. The factory installed systems (keyless entry only, I believe) have an orange box mounted behind the cover of the inside of the rear hatch. For example, when I gave the...
